REMINDER
*This is a direct sequel to The Deal and this time Frieza plans on making a few adjustments to the deal he made with Epic Games.*
A knock sounded outside the office door within the Epic Games headquarters.
“Come in.” The CEO said while skimming through the paperwork.
The door opens to reveal a small elderly blue woman with lavender hair and wore a Frieza Force attire. “Good afternoon sir. I am Berriblu. I have been sent here on behalf of my master; Lord Frieza to check on the current status of implementing his skin into Fortnite and to remind you of your deadline.”
Letting out an audible gasp at the mention of Frieza’s name, the CEO stood up and hurriedly walked over to Berriblu with his face draining of color. “We’re still working on it! I’m sorry if Lord Frieza was displeased with the Gohan and Piccolo skin. Please rest assure that we haven’t forgotten about the deal but it takes time when considering other collaborations that we’d like to do in the near future!”
“Good to hear. Although my lord has been thinking about the technicalities of implementing and coding the skins into the game since the last time he was here. He has decided to extend the deadline if you are not able to do so this year.”
The CEO sighed in relief. “Thank you.”
Berriblu then held up her index finger. “But only on one condition.”
“What condition would that be?” Asked the CEO nervously.
“Starting today either I or my lord will be checking in on a monthly basis to ensure the progress of inserting his skin into the game goes smoothly and that no one should forget about it. Would that be alright with you?” Berriblu asked with a sinister smile on her wrinkled face.
“Y-yes ma’am.” The CEO nodded shakily.
“Very well then. I will inform my lord of this.” Berriblu was about to leave when she stopped half way out the door. “Pardon me but I couldn’t help but notice that a trio of young men were waiting to speak with you about a collaboration.”
“Oh?”
“Yes. One had a pig mask on, the other was a brightly colored yet timid person and the last one had a scar on the corner of his forehead. That one was a rather polite young man.”
“Ah yes. That would be Inosuke, Zenitsu, and Tanjiro from Demon Slayer.” The CEO said. “It’s a very popular anime these days and fans are asking for a collaboration.”
“Hm. Well that will make things much more interesting. Have a good day.” Berriblu said as she floated out. At the back of her mind she couldn’t help but feel curious about the girl in the box who peeked out a bit before closing the door when the elderly woman passed by the trio of boys.
End.
*Note: There is no news of Fortnite having a Demon Slayer collaboration at this time. But I wanted to hint that possibility into this short story because who wouldn’t want to play as everyone’s favorite demon, Nezuko. She’s freaking adorable!*
